Am I Nesting?

I don't know why, but I've been struggling lately with the urge to cook far more food than we can possibly manage to pack up the freezer. Since I have a little baby apartment size freezer, this is not very plausible... it's already full of ice cream, waffles, and things that have gone on sale like Bagelfuls and pogos (which are nice treats for the kids when I just don't have time to pull out real food).

But I'm going to make my wish list here so that I have something to refer to in case I do not go on strike and can in fact swing a second freezer.

Produce:
Berries of all types
Peaches (easier than canning!)
Shredded zucchinni (for quick bread)
Tomato sauce
Peppers, pre-diced
Rhubarb
Apple sauce
Chicken and beef stock

Meals:
Pulled pork for sandwhiches
Fajita filling
Quiches
Pot pies
Lasagna
Sloppy joe filling
meatballs
crepes
taco filling
real mac&cheese

Soups (bases):
Chicken/carrot/celery
Spicy Sausage
Butternut Squash
Pumpkin

Quickbreads/Muffins:
Pumpkin
Zucchini (chocolate and plain)
chocolate chip
blueberry
raspberry/chocolate chip muffins
banana
banana + peanut butter chip
cappuccino

(Bonus Round) Canning:
Pie filling (peach, blueberry, apple, strawberry rhubarb)
Peach/tomato salsa
regular salsa
raspberry jam
bluebarb jam
strawberry jam
strawberry rhubarb jam

That's about the run of it... can you see why this is perhaps a daunting prospect?
